Ninja Assassin [Guest Writer] (5 Stars)


Trained since childhood to be a lethal killer, Raizo has since turned his back on the Ozunu clan that raised him and now seeks revenge for their heartless murders. Teaming up with Europol investigator Mika, Raizo steadily butchers his enemies while inching ever closer to the long-awaited bloody reunion with his former master.

I just finished watching this movie for the umpteenth time and thought I should get this review down while the adrenaline is still high. This movie is my personal wet dream or I may even liken it to my personal porno. [laughs] I know that sounds pretty creepy but considering that I'm a sadist with sociopathic tendencies and a knife fetish that never once mentioned the words normal or sane in relation to myself, I guess it works for me. This movie had everything, and I do mean everything, that I look for in an Asian karate and sword-fighting movie. The fighting sequences were superb, the story riveting and fascinating, the actors smoking hot (men and women) and strong in their skills that brought this movie to life. The only thing that I had a problem with this movie was the viscosity of the blood and the fact that they got a little heavy handed with the cutting of limbs that threatened to ruin my buzz but other than that I say it was a masterpiece and it is among my Top 10 movies of all time. You heard correctly; I'm not qualifying this movie in my top action genre list but my overall general list (would probably be #7 of my Top 10). It's just that good to me and I think it always will be. I'm going to go cool down now since my heart is still beating pretty fast. Highly recommended!!
